“…Tissue engineering aims to mimic the structure, function and composition of the native tissues in the best possible way. In order to achieve this goal, several approaches have been employed including scaffold-based and scaffold-free strategies for engineering of tissues including; bone, cartilage, tendon, ligaments, nervous tissue, and orthopedic interfaces (Freed et al, 1998;Moffat et al, 2009;Yilgor et al, 2010;Erisken et al, 2011;Chen et al, 2015). In these, either cells are directly injected to the damage site, or biomaterials are implanted without cellular content, or cells and biomaterials are combined for in vitro or in vivo applications.…”
